Carrie has been a kitchen slave in Sam Fraunces' tavern in New York City for as long as she can remember. But after she narrowly escapes a kidnapper, Carrie becomes more curious about her mysterious past. After all, she doesn't even know her own last name. When her friend Dan Arabus comes to town, he talks about his dream of buying his mother's freedom with the Continental notes his father left him. Deciding to help Dan discover how much the notes are worth, Carrie finds herself eavesdropping on Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, and President Washington himself. What's more, Carrie also stumbles upon the startling truth about her own family.

      This final book in the Arabus Family saga continues the authors' close attention to historical accuracy while telling an engrossing adventure story. Carrie, a slave in Sam Fraunce's tavern, has a front-row seat to the birth of a new idea of freedom and to the inauguration of George Washington. Lisa Marie Pitts gives a believable voice to this feisty young lady who is bound and determined to uncover the secrets of her past and take her place as a free citizen of this new country. Pitts's dialogue sounds realistic as she deliver the kind of unorthodox grammar used by the unschooled. She fills the dialogue with emotion, letting the listener hear Carrie's frustrations, hopes, and dreams in every line. N.E.M. (c) AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine
